Hey rough diamond seen ya smilin’
Won’t you send your love this way
Hey rough diamond this mood’s in transit
Now only love can guide your way

‘Cause if it’s here that I stand alone
I think I’ll just call it home
I’m down at the drifter’s dome
I’m a young man in transit

Hey rough diamond there’s room for landing
Won’t you send your plane this way
Hey rough diamond this mood’s in transit
Now only love can guide your way

This boy has been labelled
By the mission’s disciple
But the boy knows his moment
So put down the rifle
